Security Screening and Reliability Status

Security screening is a contract requirement for those who handle mail or have access to Canada Post facilities and systems. Compliance is mandatory.

The pages that follow are designed to help you fill out the Personnel Screening, Consent and Authorization Form. The step-by-step process takes a matter of minutes.

Three reasons security screening matters to you 1. The Government of Canada Security Policy requires not just employees but contractors

and those who work for them to have reliability status, which is basic security screening.

2. Respecting privacy and protecting personal information is fundamental to Canada Post’s business and central to the trust of its brand. It is also the law.

3. Without reliability status, contractors or their employees are not allowed to handle the mail, and they can be denied access to Canada Post facilities.

Contract-holder obligation Businesses that hold contracts with Canada Post must designate company security officers (CSOs) and alternates (ACSOs) who are security screened prior to processing forms for employees. These are generally business owners or others who manage, recruit, interview, appoint or keep records of employees. They are referred to as leads.

Security screening in three simple steps 1. Applicant

Fill out the Personnel Screening, Consent and Authorization Form using black or blue ink, and return it to your CSO or ACSO for review and submission.

2. Applicant to CSO or ACSO Provide two pieces of valid Canadian government-issued identification (one with a photo).

Forms can also be sent by email to [email protected]. Security screening forms that are properly filled out are processed within five business days. Processing may be delayed if additional requirements are needed (e.g. fingerprinting).

SECTION B – Biographical information (continued) Applicant/employee: Complete steps to with no gaps or overlaps in the dates given.

(five-year residence history and criminal convictions)

In the event that additional space is needed, complete these sections on a separate sheet of paper. Provide this sheet along with the completed Personnel Screening, Consent and Authorization Form.

a. If you arrived in Canada less than five years ago, please provide a copy of your permanent resident card.

b. If you are a permanent resident and you resided outside of Canada for greater than one year after the date your permanent resident card was issued, provide a police certificate from the country you resided in.

c. If you are a Canadian citizen but have resided outside Canada within the past five years for greater than

one year, provide a police certificate from the country you resided in.

Should an individual’s file contain adverse information, Canada Post’s Security and Investigation Services will thoroughly evaluate the file on a case-by-case basis before granting or denying reliability status.

If you know you have a conviction for a criminal offence, it is in your best interest to be honest when you fill out the form. A conviction may not disqualify you from being cleared. Security and Investigation Services weigh your age at the time of the offence, the nature and severity of the offence and its relevance to your services. (Those who have indicated a criminal record will be subject to a more involved screening that could take up to 120 days. These applicants may be given an opportunity to explain the offence to an officer of the Security and Investigation team.)
